UH-1N Huey’s Inducted Into the Boneyard

[pat038536]

For decades, the UH-1N Huey has served our country with honor. Reliability and time tested dependability is what Marine Corps history will have to say about the Iroquois.

Sadly, like all things, the elder UH-1N model’s time has come to pass. On April 24, escorted by Cherry Point, N.C., based Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 467, the 1N model Huey’s found their resting place at the 309th Aerospace Maintenance And Regeneration Group, an aircraft gravesite appropriately known as the Boneyard.

Time marches on.

History will not forget their service record.

I guess they could store it at my place for free. If they were willing to ship it and provide a personal pilot.

I want one. I have always had an affinity for helos, but espcially for the Huey!

I'll never forget flying "nape of the earth" in a Huey behind a M-60 Delta during door gunner training (yes I'm that old). Our pilots were Nam vets and lived to scare the crap out of the FNG's. I'd rather fly in a Huey than fu.........errrrrrr........do just about anything.

Best times of my life were in an N model.

I even have a shirt that says " It's an "N" thing, you wouldn't understand"
